Deploying from DevOps

We’ll now be walking through deploying from DevOps instead of our local Visual Studio. The first step is to create your DevOps project, as shown in Figure 10.1:

To create the project, we’ll use the wizard. (The first time, the wizard will probably come up immediately, otherwise click to bring up the wizard.) Here are the steps:

1. Go to dev.Azure.com.
2. Click on Start free (even if you already have an account).
3. If it redirects you, enter dev.azure.com in the address box.
